Air Deccan keen to start services to Himachal Pradesh

Shimla:  Budget airline Air Deccan today offered to start to-and-fro flights to Shimla, Kullu, Dharamsala and Kangra from Delhi and Chandigarh.

Chairman and Managing Director of Air Deccan Captain G R Gopinath expressed his interest to start services to different parts of the hill state at an investor meet organised by Himachal government in Bangalore.
The airline is keen to start three flights per day to Shimla from Delhi and two flights each between Chandigarh and Kullu, Gopinath said, adding the services can be started within one month of obtaining necessary clearances.

Evincing keen interest in the offer, Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh agreed in principle to the proposal and asked the company to submit the proposal soon so that the government could examine it and take follow up action.

The chief minister put the government's viewpoints on investment and said "we want to develop an IT park in Himachal and the exercise on it will be started on return to Shimla".
